Solving so many problems...

For those of you who get pissed to hell at microsoft's failure to play back certain file types, download WInAmp. It plays back virtually everything, save real player files and files made for DivX, which you should also get if you dont have. www.winamp.com it's essentially the same set up as media player, but its a lot more inculsive.

I use Windows XP SP2 with Windows Media Player included. Above that I have RealPlayer version 10 and QuickTime 6.5.1. With this combination I can play every clip that comes by in this theater.

viewers can also right click on the link and save the clip first, then play it. That always works for me.

I got the same as Aznagoel up there. Plus I have Quicktime player for those pesky .mov files.

I use the K-Lite Mega Codec Pack myself. It comes with stripped-down, ad-ware/spyware/annoying messenger pop-up free versions of both Quicktime and Realplayer and has other stand-alone codecs that allow it to play any kind of media file you have, even Windows Media Files (Although you have to be careful if using WMP 10, as the codec K-Lite installs renders WMP inoperable, as it is the 7/8/9 one. Not sure if they've updated that yet).
